According to a report from Sepanta Salamat Ayric Company, the "Iran-Armenia-Eurasia Export Corridor Conference" was held at the Isfahan Science and Technology Town. The event was attended by Mr. Seyed Mojtaba Ghadamgahi, Director of Business Development, and Ms. Razieh Kohansal, Director of the Export Corridor of the Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology.

At this conference, organized by Sepanta Salamat Ayric, the export agent of the Center for International Interactions, Mr. Ehsan Yazdian, Deputy of Technology Development of Isfahan Science and Technology Town, welcomed the guests and introduced the capabilities and potential of the knowledge-based and tech companies of the town.

Mr. Ghadamgahi explained the structure of the International Science and Technology Interactions Center under the President's Office and highlighted the importance of knowledge-based and tech companies' familiarity with export issues such as financial transfers, transportation, and more, alongside maintaining product quality and competitive pricing. He elaborated on the supportive capacities of the center for tech and knowledge-based companies in export development and outlined the new approach of the Business Development Office regarding granting facilities.

He noted the readiness of various Armenian institutions, including the Union of Armenian Traders and Employers, the Armenian Chamber of Commerce, the Armenian Ministry of Advanced Industries, and the Armenian Tech Companies Union, to hold face-to-face business meetings and visit the Expo as part of this commercial-technology trip.

At the end of the conference, two guests from Armenia participated online to discuss the capacities of the Iran-Armenia-Eurasia Export Corridor.

Mr. Gagik Makaryan, Chairman of the Union of Armenian Traders and Employers, thanked Sepanta Salamat for its deep and practical activities in Armenia for the synergy between Iranian tech companies and Armenian traders and industrialists.

Mr. Sergey Pirutyunyan highlighted the benefits of producing or transferring the final stages of production to Armenia, including zero tariffs among Eurasian Economic Union member countries, and stressed the Armenian Chamber of Commerce's cooperation with Sepanta Salamat for developing Iran-Armenia commercial and technological interactions.
